Frescobaldi Laudemio Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 2013 Harvest (Italy)

Acclaimed by food writers around the world, Frescobaldi Laudemio is an estate-produced olive oil from the hills of Chianti Ruffina. The Frescobaldi family has been at the center of the economic, political, and cultural life of Florence since the Middle Ages. Their extra virgin olive oils reflect not only the noblest Tuscan heritage, but a constant love and commitment to achieving the highest level of product quality.

All producers of Laudemios must adhere to strict guidelines established by the Laudemio consortium. The Laudemio consortium regulations cover all aspects of production, including geographical boundaries with Central Tuscany, soil requirements, and specific criteria for planting and cultivating the olives. Among the 32 Laudemios now being produced, Frescobaldi is consistently rated "exceptional" and was given a "First Class Rating" in The Olive Oil Companion.

The blend of Frantoio (80%), Moraiolo (10%), and Leccino (10%) olives produces this vibrant green, fruity, and sophisticated oil. Frescobaldi Laudemio has a fresh aroma with hints of artichoke and pepper. Use as a condiment over beans, grilled or steamed vegetables, or drizzle over soups. Its bold taste brings life to any number of dishes, transforming even boring to fantastic.

Frescobaldi Laudemio is a filtered, estate-bottled olive oil that has garnered many awards including "Best Olive Oil" at the Summer Fancy Food Show 2001, New York and #1 Tuscan oil in 1997 by Wine Spectator. Each bottle is packed in an individual box which protects the oil from light.
